India Practices in Beckenham Ahead of July 23 Fourth Test vs England; Arshdeep Singh Injured, Series 2-1

Ahead of the fourth Test match between India and England scheduled to begin on July 23, 2025, Team India conducted a practice session in Beckenham, United Kingdom. The Test series is currently poised with England leading 2-1 in the five-match contest, according to recent reports. During the training session, Indian pacer Arshdeep Singh sustained a cut on his bowling hand while attempting to stop a ball from teammate Sai Sudharsan. The injury required bandaging, and there is uncertainty regarding the need for stitches, which could affect India's plans for the upcoming Test. Team India's assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate confirmed the incident and noted that the medical team was assessing the severity of the cut. Other players, including Jasprit Bumrah, Sai Sudharsan, Karun Nair, and Yashasvi Jaiswal, were also present at the practice session. Despite a narrow 22-run defeat at Lord’s in the previous Test, Team India maintained morale, reportedly reciting the Hanuman Chalisa in the dressing room as they prepared for the next match.
